[…]

Boston Celtics forward Danilo Gallinari might not get a chance to even suit up for Boston. The 34-year-old signed with the organization last offseason, but missed the entire season due to a torn ACL.

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Andrew Painter (elbow) was able to throw a 30-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday.

Clippers Showing Interest In Chris Paul

The Los Angeles Clippers have already reportedly expressed interest in a reunion with guard Chris Paul. On paper, Paul to the Clippers does make sense in a lot of ways.
